What is Bell Ezee Flow Tea?

Bell Ezee Flow Tea is a natural, oral prostate formulation meant for the treatment and prevention of various urinary problems related to prostate health in men. It is manufactured by Bell Lifestyle Products.

This natural product contains a proprietary blend of 12 different herbs including saw palmetto, ginseng, and stinging nettle extracts, all of which have been proven in multiple scientific studies to be beneficial to prostate health.

Since Bell Ezee Flow Tea is mainly marketed for urinary problems relating to prostate health, these herbs are believed to be the main active ingredients while other ingredients provide additional therapeutic actions.

Besides saw palmetto and stinging nettle extracts, Bell Ezee Flow Tea also contains some detoxifying and cleansing ingredients such as lemon and cranberry. Both of these natural ingredients are included to help flush the urinary tract and re-establish a clear path for the urine stream.

A bottle of the product contains 120 g of the herbal formulation supplied in tea form.

The recommended daily serving is a minimum of two large cups (one cup of 240 ml prepared from 4 g of tea) taken on an empty stomach. Therefore, each bottle of the product will last for 15 days.

The daily intake should continue for as long as improvement is observed. However, the daily serving can be reduced to a maintenance dose of 1 cup after prostate health has sufficiently improved.

While a few users report early relief of symptoms, it usually takes some time for most users to see the first sign of improvement. Therefore, it is important to strictly follow the recommended dosage for a considerable length of time before determining whether Bell Ezee Flow Tea works or not.

Bell Ezee Flow Tea: Side Effects

Bell Ezee Flow Tea is safe and well-tolerated for most users. However, there are a few complaints of minor side effects with the most common ones being gastrointestinal discomfort and nausea.

In a few studies, minor gastrointestinal side effects have been observed with the use of saw palmetto and stinging nettle extracts. Therefore, gastrointestinal problems are to be expected from Bell Ezee Flow Tea since it contains these herbs as active ingredients.

Although those studies recommended that the extracts should be taken with food to reduce the gastrointestinal side effects, the instructions on the label of the herbal tea specifically state that it should be taken on an empty stomach.

However, these gastrointestinal side effects are resolved with time as the body develops a tolerance to the herbal tea.

Other mild side effects reported by users include headaches and sweating. These side effects can also be relieved by taking a lot of water along with the tea.

Bell Ezee Flow Tea: Contraindications and Drug Interactions

Bell Ezee Flow Tea is formulated for men and should not be used by women. Because it contains chamomile, an herb that can contract the uterus and cause miscarriage, it should especially be avoided by pregnant and breastfeeding women.

In addition, children under the age of 12 should not be given Bell Ezee Flow Tea except when recommended by their physicians.

As with other natural herbal products, care should be taken when combining Bell Ezee Flow Tea with other medications.

For instance, saw palmetto and chamomile (two of the active ingredients of this tea) are blood thinners that inhibit blood platelets and prevent blood from clotting. Therefore, Bell Ezee Flow Tea should not be taken along with other known blood thinners such as warfarin and NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) like ibuprofen and aspirin.

Bell Ezee Flow Tea can also reduce the effectiveness of the medications listed below:

• Diuretics
• Medications for high blood pressure and diabetes
• Oral contraceptives

The Active Ingredients of Bell Ezee Flow Tea

Chamomile

Chamomile is a medicinal herb with a rich history in traditional medicine. It possesses a number of therapeutic properties including anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antispasmodic, carminative, and sedative properties.

The major bioactive phytochemicals in chamomile are terpenoids, umbelliferone, esculetin, luteolin, quercetin, and chamazulene. Some of these compounds boost the production of glycine in the body and this helps to relax the smooth muscles of the urinary bladder, therefore, easing the flow of urine.

Besides relieving urinary difficulties in men with prostate problems, this herb can provide additional benefits by reducing stress and preventing insomnia.

Cinnamon

Cinnamon is a popular spice known for its culinary uses. However, this herb also possesses some medicinal benefits.

It is a powerful antioxidant with a stronger antioxidant activity than other common spices such as ginger, nutmeg, and mint. Therefore, it is helpful in preventing inflammation in the prostate and cancerous growth of prostatic cells.

Cinnamaldehyde, a bioactive component of cinnamon, possesses an anti-inflammatory action by interfering with the biochemical cascade driving inflammatory reactions in the body. This is especially useful for men suffering from prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate).

In addition, this active compound can prevent and fight off bacterial infections in the urinary tract and prostate gland.

Cranberry and Lemon

Cranberry and lemon have a detoxifying effect on the urinary tract and can also help prevent bacterial infections in the prostate and urinary tract. Proanthocyanidins, an active compound of cranberry, are believed to be responsible for its antibacterial property.

Because they are rich in vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant, both of these fruits can help inhibit the development of malignant cells and, therefore, prevent prostate cancer.

Cranberry and lemon also contain citric acid, another useful natural compound effective in the treatment of kidney and bladder diseases that can cause urinary problems.

Damiana

Damiana is a small shrub also known as Turnera aphrodisiaca. Extracts are obtained from the aromatic leaves of this shrub and are primarily used for medicinal purposes.

Traditionally, damiana is used to improve sexual functions especially erectile dysfunction which is a common complication of prostate problems and also a side effect of prostate medications.

In addition, its active phytochemicals help in regulating the action of sex hormones on the prostate gland.

Arbutin, one of the active chemicals of damiana, has been found in some studies to be responsible for the anti-inflammatory action of damiana especially in the bladder and ureters.

Other active compounds found in damiana include essential oils, resins, tannins, starch, barterin and, a unique compound known as damianin.

Willow Flower

Willow flower herb has been popular for some years now in Europe for its usefulness in the treatment of prostate problems. 

The herb is obtained from the herbaceous plant, Epilobium parviflorum, belonging to the Onagraceae family.

Willow flower contains the bioactive compounds, oenothein A and B, that target hormone action on the prostate by inhibiting the two enzymes, 5-alpha reductase (required for the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone, the chief androgen hormone responsible for prostate enlargement) and aromatase (required in the synthesis of estrogen, the chief female sex hormone known to prevent the body from breaking down DHT).

Therefore, these two enzymes are essential to the production and action of DHT in the prostate.

This herb also contains b-sitosterol which is also found in saw palmetto, another herb beneficial to prostate health.

The efficacy of willow flower extract in the treatment of prostate problems was demonstrated in a study published by the Prostate Center of Vancouver. Among the 92 extracts examined in the study, willow flower was one of the effective herbs found to inhibit the two enzymes indirectly responsible for prostate enlargement.

The herb is also effective for the treatment of urinary tract infections especially those caused by bacteria.

Other active phytochemicals found in willow flower include kaempferol, quercetin, and myricetin.

Ginseng

Ginseng is one of the favorite herbs in traditional medicine. It is primarily known for improving cognitive functions. However, it is also beneficial to prostate health.

Ginseng can reduce the risk of (and slow down) prostate cancer. Ginsenoside Rh2, a bioactive ingredient of ginseng, was shown in a 2010 study published in the journal, Fitoterapia, to be capable of destroying prostate cancer cells and preventing the spread of malignant prostatic cells.

Another study found that some of the ginseng’s active phytochemicals prevented the expression of a protein, MDM2, known to be involved in the development of cancerous cells.

Lavender

Lavender has been traditionally used for centuries in Europe for making perfumes. Therefore, it contributes to the sweet aroma of Bell Ezee Flow Tea.

Lavender contains essential oils that can help resolve urinary problems especially those related to prostatitis, cystitis and other kinds of inflammation in the urinary tract.

It is also good for relieving pain associated with urinary difficulties as well as useful for improving sleep.

Red Peony

Red peony has a rich history of medicinal use in Chinese traditional medicine.

Root extracts from this herb contain paeonol, a bioactive compound that relaxes the muscles of the urinary tract to help ease the flow of urine. In addition, it prevents erectile dysfunction by relaxing the walls of blood vessels and dilating them for increased blood flow.

It also contains the active compound, paeoniflorin, known to relieve the inflammation in organs such as the liver, kidney, and prostate. This anti-inflammatory property of red peony was demonstrated in a 2010 study published in the journal, Archives of Pharmacal Research.

In the study, doses of 2.5, 5.0 and 10 mg/kg of red peony root extract given for a period of 21 days were found to reduce prostate inflammation in rats.

Saw Palmetto

Saw palmetto is a small palm commonly grown in the US. It is widely used both as a food source and for its medicinal benefits.

It is the most popular herb used for treating prostate problems. It contains two main bioactive chemicals, fatty acids and sterols, and the extracts are standardized by these two groups of compounds.

The active phytochemicals of saw palmetto inhibit the action of DHT (dihydrotestosterone) on the prostate by blocking the enzyme responsible for its production. In addition, the active compounds in saw palmetto can also reduce the activity of DHT in the prostate by preventing this potent hormone from binding to the androgenic receptors.

The effectiveness of saw palmetto in the treatment of BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia) was demonstrated in a 2000 study published in The Journal of Urology.

In the study, 160 mg of saw palmetto extract was found to be effective in 44 patients suffering from symptomatic BPH after a treatment period of 6 months.

Stinging Nettle

Stinging nettle belongs to a diverse group of herbaceous plants commonly referred to as nettle. It is also known as Urtica dioica and it is a common invasive weed in the US.

Every part of the stinging nettle has some medicinal benefits. Specifically, the root extract is used in the treatment of prostate enlargement.

The root extract contains flavonoids, fatty acids, lignans and sterols. Stinging nettle root extract supplements are standardized by their fatty acid content.

All the active components of stinging nettle work together to reduce prostate enlargement and improve prostate health generally. The active ingredients share similar mechanisms of action as those found in saw palmetto but stinging nettle also has additional benefits.

Besides inhibiting the enzymes responsible for producing DHT, stinging nettle extract inhibits the binding of testosterone to sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG). This action inhibits the delivery of testosterone to the prostate and, therefore, reduces the amount of DHT formed in the prostate.

As a result, DHT cannot induce the proliferation of prostatic cells and enlargement of the prostate is prevented.

A 2004 study published in the Journal of Herbal Pharmacotherapy found stinging nettle root extract to be effective in a group of 620 patients suffering from BPH.

Water Plantain

Water plantain, also known as Alisma plantago aquatica, is a water plant commonly found in the US.

Although its leaves and roots are toxic when fresh, the toxins are destroyed by heat when cooked or dried. Extracts from this plant have some medicinal benefits.

The extracts contain essential oils with antibacterial properties and they are effective in the treatment and prevention of urinary tract infections caused by bacteria.

The active compounds in water plantain also have a detoxifying effect in the kidney. This is another way by which water plantain improves urinary functions.
